    My uncle has added A/C to at least two 1980s and 1990s Toyota pickups that did not previous have it...

    The orange '91 was one of the ones that had A/C added, but it did not have power steering; By the way, the wheels are from a 1974 AMC Hornet...

    I learned to drive stick in this truck!

    @loosnut

    I found it! In my opinion it does not appear to be worth restoring based on all the rust, and even if I had the money and resources to even attempt a restoration, I probably wouldn’t because it would probably cost upwards of twenty grand! Thanks for the tip though!

    Do you know if these had front disc or 4-wheel drum? I looked sort of and saw what looked like a disc brake caliper, but it was rusted and hard to tell...

    You can buy 3.4L for cheap, SC reasonable, fuel system, tune, and have a pretty cool little sleeper.

    I had a 2000 TRD that was SC, URD “stuff” and that truck moved pretty good.

    Would I be able to fit A/C components under the hood too? If I'm driving this thing out to Carlisle for the Truck Nationals in August, I'm not doing it without A/C!

    I would be consulting an auto AC shop about that. I would say yes.
